Raised in Dungeon

Chapter 22 22 : Why Did Everything Come To This?



The chamber became very cold, there were more than a hundred people in the chamber, but the only sound heard was the crying of a boy, Allen.

The Queen Orc had killed many people, the soldiers had friends killed by the Queen Orc, and perhaps their families as well. These people had every right to hate the Queen Orc, but when they saw the boy crying, the fire of their hatred was extinguished. Instead, they saw how much Queen Orc cared for him.

In the cries of silence in the room, what broke the silence was

"Haaaaaah...." a sigh of a cold-hearted man.

"What a sight for sore eyes... That monster is a despicable creature, subordinate to a demon, why should you cry over a monster?"

It was Leofric who had just gathered a bit of his strength to move, the side effects of his mind acceleration were probably gone.

"All of you here are the same, why are you just looking? Don't you remember how these monsters killed your friends? With that intelligence, for Queen Orc, that kid is probably just a research object or a pet."

Allen's crying stopped, and Allen placed his mother's hand gently on the floor. Then he began to wail.

"Why did everything come to this?"

"Why..."

"Why?"

"Why did mother have to die?"

"Is it my fault? Is it my fault I didn't listen to what my mother said?"

"It must be because I walked out of that room. I should have stayed inside waiting for mom to come home, then as usual, mom would have come through that door."

"Why?! Why?! Why?! WHY!!!"

Amidst Allen's wailing, Leofric approached him and said,

"What a pity... a child raised by orcs. Who knows what he'll do to the humans if he gets out of here? Do you want me to kill you?"

"That's right..." Allen's voice became strange. There was a slight tremor in his voice. But it was not the answer to Leofric's question.

"Humans are the ones who killed her; mother died because of humans."

At that moment, there was something strange about Allen; everyone could feel it. Something terrible seemed to be about to happen. There was a dark aura slowly surrounding him.

Allen turned around.

He raised his face and looked at Leofric.

"Humans are the problem. They are wrong, they are bad."

!!!

Everyone, including Leofric, was shocked to see Allen's face. There was a strange, intimidating aura about him. His red eyes glared at everyone in the room; that face was not the one that children, or even humans, should put on...

Everyone knows what kind of face that was…

It was…

The face of an angry monster

"What was wrong was humans."

"I should never meet humans."

"It's because I wanted to meet humans that I ended up like this."

"It's because I started talking to humans."

"It's because of humans that I can say bad things to my mother. Now, I didn't have time to say sorry to her."

Surprisingly, a breeze entered thechamber, which made the chamber even colder. The dark aura surrounding Allen was becoming more apparent to be seen by anyone in the chamber.

"This is Demonic mana! Why did demonic mana get into that kid?! There's no way a human can use demonic mana!" shouted Petronella.

Allen stood up. A strong wind entered the chamber from the door; the wind also surrounded Allen, along with the black aura, the demonic mana, that continued to surround him.

'He absorbed a very large amount of demonic mana into his body. He could fill in his body with that mana. His mana gate must be huge,' thought Leofric.

"Humans have already killed mother... Therefore..."

The incoming wind was getting stronger.

The soldiers had to hold their heads to keep their helmets from flying off; everyone was now preparing for something they thought was very dangerous.

At this moment...

Each soldier thought this...

"What exactly have we bothered?"

The dark aura surrounding Allen entered Allen's body, and the strong wind stopped.

But even though the wind stopped and the atmosphere calmed down, the soldiers didn't stop being cautious.

Coming...

He's coming!

He's going to kill us!

*BOOOM!!!

Like an explosion, but there was no fire. A tremendous amount of aura suddenly came out of Allen's body. The auras surrounding Allen's body affected the wind spirit. The wind in the room was now blowing inconsistently like a typhoon around Allen. Allen's red eyes shone, his hair floated, and his clothes were torn. The sight sent chills down the spines of everyone in the room...

Then

While glaring at them

In monster language, Allen said...

"For mother, you have killed… All humans shall perish."

-SYUUUT

Stealing the opportunity, Leofric immediately thrust his lance into Allen's body. As a result, Allen's body was thrown far into the wall at the end of the room, the wall shattered, and the mist of the breaking wall covered Allen's thrown body.

"Master! Do you feel it?"

"Yes, this weird sensation in my hand..."

Instead of being stabbed, Allen was thrown back, even though it was clear that he had stabbed Allen with Heit, but there was no blood attached at the tip of his lance. Heit's ability as Adfectus Reliqua is to negate all forms of mana. So, it should not be a god's blessing, or amnis could protect Allen.

"Something is blocking my attack," as he stabbed Allen, he felt like he was stabbing something hard, not flesh or steel. In a flash, Leofric saw a tiny circle emerge from Allen's shadow, deflecting Leofric's attack.

The mist covering Alen's body slowly dissipated, revealing his entire body. Everyone was surprised that Allen was still alive after being hit by Leofric's attack. Even if Leofric had missed, there was no way a child could survive the attack; at least an adult would have broken a bone. But Allen didn't appear to have any severe injuries, only abrasions and blood flowed down his head, covering almost half his face.

There was something even more shocking than his body condition.

Under Allen's feet, there was a living mud, wriggling like a black slime. That mud slowly climbed up Allen's body, covered his feet, and then made its way to his right hand. That mud, smeared all over Allen's right hand, formed itself into a sword and hardened. Everyone could feel that the movement of the disgusting-looking mud depicted Allen's anger. Allen's red eyes shone, and his killing aura could reach everyone.

"HUMAN!!!"

After shouting that, Allen quickly jumped and got behind Leofric with just one leap.

-SPLAT

Suddenly, everything became silent; blood was pouring out of someone's body, and everyone was slowly looking at where Allen had landed his attack.

"LORD BARKALEY!!!"

Allen first landed his attack on the person whose position was right opposite Allen; he was the captain of the soldiers of the Barkaley region, as well as the son of the baron, Waldo Barkaley.

Allen's sword struck Waldo Barkaley diagonally. The attack was so powerful that Waldo's body was almost split in half; even the chainmail he was wearing was torn apart.

"Lo…Lord Waldo?" Arthur was petrified,

unable to believe what he was seeing.

When he saw Waldo's body almost split in two, the silence was immediately broken by the angry voices of the soldiers.

"UUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The soldiers simultaneously shouted and tried to attack Allen with their weapons.

One of the soldiers' swords hit Allen; Allen held the blade of his sword, drew it without thinking about the wound on his hand, and then threw the sword away.

-TRUST

Allen's mud sword pierced the soldier's body. One by one, the soldiers approached Allen. Allen swung his sword wildly around them.

One by one, the soldier's heads fell, they rolled over, blood splattered on the floor, and Allen's body was covered in blood, just like when he fought the goblin, but this time the blood was a deep red color like his eyes.

"K N E E L"

Leofric used his God's blessing, and the ultrasonic sound he produced created waves that affected space.

-BRUG!!

Everyone in the room fell, immobilized, including Allen.

"You guys are interfering. Weaklings should back off if they don't want to die. Don't bluff to take revenge," Leofric said coldly.

"UGH!!!" Meanwhile, Allen, whose anger was peaking, slowly lifted his heavy body.

"What?" Leofric was shocked, as were Heit and the rest of the people in the room. Allen slowly raised his body forcefully. Allen successfully resisted the order of Leofric's God blessing!

-CLANG!!!

Allen quickly jumped towards Leofric, and Leofric dodged his attack. Leofric kicked Allen's body right after Allen landed his attack. Seeing how Allen could escape the shackles of his God's blessing, Leofric thought

'He was unfazed by my God's blessing? Why? Is God's blessing not working on him? That's impossible; if he's using mana, then whatever his mana form is, it can definitely be affected by other mana, especially the type that affects mana like my God's blessing.

Allen again jumped towards Leofric, but this time, Leofric easily brushed off Allen's body that jumped towards him, resulting in Allen being thrown back against the wall. Then quickly, Allen bounced back from the wall to Leofric, and so on.

"Hahaha, you're just like rubber," Leofric now looked like a tennis player hitting Allen's body, bouncing off the wall towards him.

After thinking about how Allen could escape from his God's blessing, Leofric realized something impossible.

He could only use God's blessing once more, but he had to try to figure out the mystery.

"K N E E L" Leofric commanded with his God's blessing. This time it was a little different; Leofric used monster language in his command.

And the result...

-BRUG!!!

"AAKH!!!" Allen's body fell to the ground as if dragged by gravity, as if dragged by a rope, or as if a massive stone had been dropped on him.

Without a doubt, Leofric's God's blessing had an impact on Allen. But why would Allen be affected when Leofric used the language of monsters? The answer is because Allen has-

"Demonic mana... Only monsters could use it. But for some reason, you have received a large amount of demonic mana. Is it possible that you were a monster from the start?"

'Obey your king, my God's blessing; this skill can turn my mana into a voice. If I turn my mana into a voice and input commands into it, the commands will reach the opponent's mana and make them obey my orders. If I use human language, my command will affect divine mana. If I use the language of monsters, my commands will affect demonic mana. Because of the previous incident, this kid likely has demonic mana inside his body. I don't know how he can have demonic mana when he clearly looks like a human, but that means I only need to use monster language to affect the mana inside his body,'

thought Leofric after analyzing Allen's movements. But even though he had reached that conclusion, Leofric still felt something was off. Something he felt he had forgotten.

"AAAAAGH!!!" Allen forced his body to get up.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" This time Allen forced his body even more; blood came out of the holes in his body.

"It's useless-" Leofric hadn't finished speaking yet, Allen had already escaped from the shackles of Leofric's God's blessing. Allen again tried to attack Leofric's head with his sword, and Leofric immediately reflexively retreated backwards, but Leofric was not cautious then. As a result, Leofric's left face was deeply injured.

"GAH!"

"MASTER!!!," Heit shouted.

"I...I was careless,"

Looking at Allen, who could still move even after he used monster language on him, Leofric finally understood what had been stuck in his mind earlier.

'I should have realized that the first time I used my God's blessing with human language, this kid wasn't unaffected, but rather the effect was lost after a few seconds. Same as now, he was only affected briefly, then broke free from the shackles of my command after a few seconds,'

Heit gradually realized

"Master! Does that mean this kid has both demonic mana and divine mana inside him?!"

"This doesn't make sense, but there's no other possibility. He is undoubtedly a human, and humans have divine mana, but somehow, he can also absorb demonic mana. His mana gate could store both demonic and divine mana.

Leofric wiped his injured face with his elbow.

'That means whatever language I use still affects him, but my command shackles only work temporarily. When my God's blessing affects his demonic mana with monster language, then he can still move with divine mana, and when I affect her divine mana, he will still move with demonic mana,'

Thinking of that, Leofric laughed.

"HAHAHAHA THIS KID IS SO INTERESTING!"
